At Degage Jazz Cafe & Fine Dining, we combine our trademark French inspired "refined rusticity" with an unyielding passion for the best local, seasonal, and fresh ingredients. Out menu changes seasonally depending on which ingredients are the freshest and very best. That reflects our belief that no recipe is worth preparing with less-than-perfect ingredients. Each delivery of meat, fish, and produce is inspected, accepted (or rejected) and nothing but the best is kept. All our meats, poulty, and seafoods are hand-cut in house to ensure its quality and perfection. This approach takes far more time and effort, but we and our guests think it's worth it.

“Enjoyed Everything”

Dégagé jazz Cafe has it all. Great entertainment, a beautiful ambiance, fine wines, farm to table food and a chef that caters to your food allergies with dishes that make you smile. Absolutely, without a doubt, the best place in Toledo.

If you like charcuterie and French inspired cuisine you will love Dégagé. There is a live jazz band and it is located on the river. The food is excellent with many choices and good variety. The service is fast and friendly and the servers are very knowledgeable. The drink menu is delicious with unique martinis especially for the sweet tooth.

Absolutely wonderful food and service. Our table of 13 was taken care of extremely well! The food was done to perfection and served piping hot! I had the scallops with grits...excellent! Nice variety on the menu that begs to be read several times before understanding all the choices. Pretty clever! Parking area small only drawback.

We chose a room away from the stage. the music could still be heard and seen on a TV monitor.
The Food was very good. Melody (our server) was excellent. Attentive and personable, without being a pest. Lots of things on the menu to go back and try. Going to go back with another couple sometime soon.

Went to Degage with my best friend after a ghost walk at the Wolcott House last Saturday night. Parking was at a premium because they had a wedding going on, but we found a spot. They had a jazz band from Detroit and wanted a $15 cover to sit in the bar, so we opted to just sit at a...

We have been hearing about Degage for a long time, and while we go out to eat often, have simply never tried it. Almost no one we know mentions it. I will say we were very pleasantly surprised. Menu is wonderfully diverse, will all types eclectic choices. All of our food was wonderful.
As for atmosphere, also very nice. Keep...

We are originally from a bigger city, so when we found Dégagé Jazz cafe we were wonderfully surprised. The food is very good, and I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone. It is a little pricey but it is worth the cost.

Dégagé is a lovely establishment that we "fell upon" when looking for a nice place for a dinner date. From the layout of the menu, to the presentation of the food, not a single detail is omitted.
We love the seasonally changing options, the locally grown delights and the impeccably concocted dishes that "PoP" in your mouth.
We certainly recommend...

I'm in the process of becoming a veggie and this place has a great menu for veggies and omnivores. I was told the cook wants to be inclusive, they sure are. I took my wife back and she loved it too. We'll be back again.

Creamy Toscano Soaked in Syrah (House Favorite

Nutty flavor of aged Parmesan, creamy texture of farmstead Cheddar. Soaked in Coastal Syrah. The wine imparts blackberry and plum jam flavors to the cheese, creating a marriage of flavors that's destined to make you say "I do," over and over again. My favorite on the list!! Best you will ever try!!

You won't find a more delicious blue cheese than this. Great creaminess and evenly distributed blue veins. Drawing on the pristine natural resources of northwestern Wisconsin, it begins with the freshest raw milk from herds of predominantly Jersey cows. The homogenized (not pasteurized) milk is inoculated with a secret blend of cultures, hooped by hand, pierced, salted then cured for at least 2 months while being rotated regularly to insure a perfect cheese.

/lb$15.00

Cypress Grove Humboldt Fog

Creamy and luscious with a subtle tangy flavor. Elegant soft-ripened goat's milk. Handcrafted with a delicate ribbon of edible vegetable ash along its center.

/lb$23.00

Wild Blueberry Vanilla Chevre Goat Cheese ( House Favorite)

Cross between cream cheese and cheese cake, except thicker and kinda tart. Cheese cake-esque qualities, light vanilla flavoring, blueberry glaze on outside consisting of dozens if not hundreds of small berries. Pleasantly sweet but not sugary.
